My husband and I had an AMAZING time at our friend’s sunset birthday cruise on the water! Paradise Island Charters is an awesome fully equipped boat tour experience, with stunning water sunset views, delicious food, and fun entertainment. Captain Larry shared tid bits of interesting local knowledge, spotted dolphins and kept the party going with his DJ skills. While First Mate Sarah tended to all the guests needs making sure we had plenty of delicious food!! Once the sun went down our casual sunset cruise turned into a dance party!! Captain Larry and First Mate Sarah went above and beyond to be sure everyone had a great time! Whether you are celebrating something, or just want to relax and take in the views, it’s the perfect way to enjoy a beautiful day/night on the water -this is a must do!

I must say, that Island Paradise Charters was the perfect 60th birthday party for myself. Captain Larry was the best!! His humor, and knowledge of the area, made the trip so much fun.
We watched a beautiful sunset, danced the night away, with the best music they provided, and the food was just delicious. I loved how they had a microphone system so everyone could make speeches and toasts, that was extra special.
I will definitely go out on island Paradise charters again. Next time I might do the day trip, which takes you to an island and a barbecue for you. .

35 of us from our housing community made a day of it! We were transported to the Island Paradise charter via motorcoach. Captain Larry and first mate Jenny met us promptly, moved our pile of chairs, umbrellas and coolers to the boat. Once aboard we enjoyed the water views and dolphin sightings. Upon arrival to the island, again our chairs and other things were taken to the island for us. Spectacular sand, beautiful vistas, walks on the beach and we found gorgeous shells. Captain Larry and Jenny cooked and produced a fantastic beach lunch for us. Chicken, sausages, pulled pork, salads, it was awesome. Beach dancing broke out after lunch, so many laughs, all in a perfect setting. Our ride back to Port Richey was great with fun music, lots of singing and everyone was tired and grateful after a wonderful day together, stress free, thanks to Captain Larry and Jenny.

Captain Larry and Captain Bob were the best. They took such great care of our large group. We used this charter to spread our mother’s ashes in the Gulf and everything was so smooth and perfect and respectful. Everyone in our group said how much they enjoyed the boat. Many thanks to Captain Larry for his understanding and excellent communication.
Highly recommended.

Working with Island Paradise charters was a great experience when we wanted to plan a memorial to scatter my Dad’s ashes. He was great to communicate by phone and quick to respond. We took my Mom (in a walker) and us three sisters on the boat. We got a little confused coming in. It is behind the Catches water front grill. (Enter around the back of Catches tiki bar on the left) he was very patient and kind to help all the people to get on the boat. He had a Bluetooth speaker so we could play my Dad’s favorite songs and it was a chill 2 hour tour where we got to talk and remember. The owner was super respectful and kind to help all the people with different challenges get on the boat. I was impressed by his patience and chill demeanor. We were able to set up a table with pictures etc. we traveled from several Midwest cities to memorialize him and it was a great experience. Highly recommend.

We had a very nice and relaxing dinner cruise. Captain Bob and his relief captain were top-notch. We anchored near the stilt homes and had a delicious meal. After dinner and sunset, we cruised up the river. Highly recommended

We also got to watch tow boat us pull a stuck vessel of the sand bar. Fun time was had by all.

Beautiful brand new boat.
